Thrifty Mother’s Day gifts

Now that Mother’s Day is coming in a few days, I thought I would share a few thrifty ideas for Mother’s Day.

  • Karen has already talked about a great craft idea of painting something for mom’s.
  • A family portrait from Sears is very reasonable.  Just go to Sears Photo and find the coupons for free portraits.
  • There is usually a small indulgence that mom wants like a box of chocolates or a pair of shoes she would never buy for herself.
  • Babysitting is usually a great idea.  Surely you know a teenager that wants to earn a little extra money.  Offer to give mom a day out or a date night.
  • Go out and find wild flowers to cut for a beautiful bouquet of flowers.
  • Go to Michael’s or your local craft store to get a collage using a coupon and fill it with photos.
  • Give her a basket of plant seeds if she likes to garden.  They are cheap and she can pick and choose what she wants.

These are just a few thrifty Mother’s Day ideas that you can use to make your mom feel special.  But whatever you do or spend, Just make sure you don’t forget her.  That will make for a very sad mom.  All I want is to sleep until 8 AM and then have my kids hug me and tell me they love me.  I’ll settle for a wet drool kiss from Little Man.  Who would have imagined I would want spit for Mother’s Day?
